Using an editor is always preferable.
I'll sugest emacs with etags (this way you can confirm edits
before they happen)
1. create the tags file (TAGS in the current dir).
etags *.html
or
find . -type f -name "*.html" -print | xargs etags
2. load up the tags file in emacs
M-x visit-tags-table
TAGS <--- tags file
3. Now do a tags-search and replace
M-x tags-query-replace
.gif <--- replace
.png <--- with
